Manassantin B shows antiviral activity against coxsackievirus B3 infection by activation of the STING/TBK-1/IRF3 signalling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is an important human pathogen associated with the development of acute pancreatitis, myocarditis, and type 1 diabetes. Currently, no vaccines or antiviral therapeutics are approved for the prevention and treatment of CVB3 infection. We found that Saururus chinensis Baill extract showed critical antiviral activity against CVB3 infection in vitro. Further, manassantin B inhibited replication of CVB3 and suppressed CVB3 VP1 protein expression in vitro. Additionally, oral administration of manassantin B in mice attenuated CVB3 infection-associated symptoms by reducing systemic production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines including TNF-?, IL-6, IFN-?, CCL2, and CXCL-1. We found that the antiviral activity of manassantin B is associated with increased levels of mitochondrial ROS (mROS). Inhibition of mROS generation attenuated the antiviral activity of manassantin B in vitro. Interestingly, we found that manassantin B also induced cytosolic release of mitochondrial DNA based on cytochrome C oxidase DNA levels. We further confirmed that STING and IRF-3 expression and STING and TBK-1 phosphorylation were increased by manassantin B treatment in CVB3-infected cells. Collectively, these results suggest that manassantin B exerts antiviral activity against CVB3 through activation of the STING/TKB-1/IRF3 antiviral pathway and increased production of mROS.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cardiac fibrogenesis in the late stage of viral myocarditis causing contractile dysfunction and ventricular dilatation, is a major pathogenic factor for the progression of myocarditis to serious cardiovascular diseases including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and congestive heart failure (HF). Recent studies indicate that regulatory T cells (Tregs) are involved in the fibrotic process of liver and lung fibosis. However, the role of Tregs in the development of viral myocarditis-caused cardiac fibrosis and their therapeutic potential remains unclear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Myocardial fibrosis was induced in BALB/c mice by intraperitoneal injection of Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) assessed by picrosirius red staining and detection of expression levels of collagen I, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1). Myocardial Treg frequency was down-regulated during the course of viral myocarditis and a negative correlation with the severity of cardiac fibrosis was found. To explore the role of Tregs in CVB-induced cardiac fibrosis, Treg was in vivo depleted by injecting anti-CD25 mAb which resulted in aggravation of cardiac fibrosis. In consistent with that, after adoptive transfer of isolated Tregs into mice, significant amelioration of CVB3-induced cardiac fibrosis was confirmed. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) neutralizing antibodies were used in vivo and in vitro to explore the molecular mechanism of the therapeutic effect of Treg. It was found that administration of anti-IL-10 mAb after Treg transfer abrogated Treg's treating effect and the inhibition of Treg on collagen production by cardiac fibroblasts was mediated mainly through IL-10. CONCLUSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our data suggested that Tregs have a protective role in the fibrotic process of CVB3-induced cardiac fibrosis via secreting IL-10 and might provide an alternative option for the future treatment of cardiac fibrosis.
